Good morning,
I'm Nick from Natick, MA. I do not own a FF (yet) but am hoping to either purchase on that someone has already put together or do some reading on here and delve into the adventure myself. See everyone on the boards.
Regards,
Nick

Welcome Nick. I live not too far from you in Norton, MA If you need someone to build one for you, I can handle that. I can also do a pre purchse inspection if you find one already built.
Keep an eye out on this site and the other one for some deals on finished cars. Ebay is another good place to look.

Welcome to the forum. What plans do you have for the use of this vehicle (pleasure, track, car shows)?

Thanks for the welcoming. I am actually looking to build/buy as a pleasure vehicle for my dad and myself. He's wanted one his whole life: Midnight blue and white stripes. He's close to retirement so I think I'd be a pretty fitting gift. I'm 27 and pretty mechanically inclined but time isn't something I have a whole lot of floating around. I'll be sure to keep an eye out for deals on this site and hopefully the right car comes around.

Hi Nick,
Welcome to the FFR Forum. Both Mike Everson & Henry have built many FFR cars. They have tons of experience.
If you build one from scratch, I have a donor Mustang engine & driveline available. If you want to stop by my store, I'm in Framingham beside where the RMV was until a few years ago, I have plenty of ideas that you need to know about kit cars in Massachusetts.
Have fun!!!

I'm in MA as well, nothing to sell, limited knowledge of Roadsters but am a F5'er through and through. My GTM will finally be at the open house this year (copper/black). If you come to the open house, stop by to introduce yourself. I am the stocky (nice way of saying overweight) 39 year old (fine turned 40 last July) with a military haircut...name is Jim.

Hey Nick, Welcome to the forum! this place is CHOCK FULL with knowledge and is one of the best tools when putting together a kit. i would recommend checking out the open house, gives a lot of guys great ideas for things to do to their cars, plus its not far for you living in Natick! (I drive to FFR everyday from Upton)
